Usyagi--God's messenger
 |
Usyagi stands for "a rabbit" in
Japanese, and it does look exactly like a rabbit, long years, twisted mouth,
white and cute. I usese "Usyagi" instead of "Ushagi" because CLAMP does
have a series of products called under the romanji title "Usyagi." Anyways,
I assume that in Wish, a Usyagi is a messenger between God and angels,
just like angels between God and human. To deliver God's message, a Usyagi
carries a flower to the angel which will then turn into energy and directs
into the angel's mind. In return, the angel may reply to god through the
Usaygi by giving it a flower produced with his houhan (magic power). There
are a lot of flowers that have been associated to the Usyagi in
the story, such as Chrysanthemum, Lotus, Peony, and of course those that
have been drown on the inner slip of each manga's jacket:
